Better late than never.
(Better earlier than today though...)
But still not cause for excommunication.
Not only should you not vote for people who want to kill your babies, you must be prepared for the possibility that they just might want to kill you should they get elected.
Wish these guys'd get a bit more specific on Teddy Kennedy though ~ just boot him out ~ Gad, this should be simple for anyone.
It's about time...Folks like the Kennedys, Kerrys, Durbins, Leahys, Landrues get away with many devout catholic voters who for some reason choose to ignore the fact that these very politicians are almost herectics!
As a Catholic myself, I am ashamed and sadden that so many of our leading pro-abortion politicians are Catholic.
I can only hope excommunications come next....

Not "almost"...
Democratic Catholics and Presidential Choice
In June 2004, the total Catholic vote was divided evenly between President George Bush and Senator John Kerry. Both candidates enjoyed a large margin of partisan support. Independent voters were split between the two candidates, and 30% remained undecided.

This is good news. Of course, the Democrats will protest that they're not really in favor of abortion, just the right to have one. I'm sure the fetus appreciates the intellectual distinction. Fortunately the Catholic Church does not.
If they don't, NOBODY will!
snort!!
As a product of 12yrs of catholic education, I left the church, and follow the teachings of Martin Luther. Seeing the history and present, I state this with no hatred or bitterness, but I have come to the conclusion that the Roman Catholic Church is the first and still most powerful multinational corporation ever.
I respected Pope John Paul II and respect Pope Benedict for trying to bring the RC Church back to its roots. Pope Benedict has a lot of work ahead of him. Lots of Cafeteria Catholics addicted to moral relativism abound in on the East Coast and urban areas around the country.
Anecdote:
Our small little Church (congregation 165) put together 4400 crosses in the shape of the Missouri Synod Cross for a pro life exhibit. We started in 1994, on Route 41 in Indiana several years. We have since passed on a large number of these crosses to several Pro Life groups. Lots of work and a member had land on Route 41, and we placed the crosses in a fallow field.
The help from the very profitable RC Parish was non existent. The pastor had a "whats in it for my parish" attitude and although a few passers by from the parish helped us set up, the silence was deafening.
NOTE: IF anyone has a need for around 600 crosses (wood, painted white, 22" x 11"they are still available. Ping me if you can give them a home
Off my soapbox
John F. Kerry gives CPR to a dead Hamster yet votes NO 6 times to BAN Partial Birth Abortion!!! Tries to save a Rodent and allows the slaughter of human beings created in God's image. What does that tell you about his Character?
"had also dived off a dock to save a hamster named Licorice from what the elder sister, Alexandra, called "a watery doom," even administering CPR."

More Bias and spin in the many newspaper articles to protect the liberal democrat. Kerry provided NO evidence of an annulment and he was married to Heinz, his second wife worth Billions, in the back yard of a home on Martha's Vineyard which is not ordinarily allowed for Catholics and there is also NO evidence of any RC priest who married them.
I wish the reporters would question him for the truth. Dream on.

Excommunicate Kerry Website Catholics Against Kerry
1400 Ecclesial communities derived from the Reformation and separated from the Catholic Church, "have not preserved the proper reality of the Eucharistic mystery in its fullness, especially because of the absence of the sacrament of Holy Orders."236 It is for this reason that Eucharistic intercommunion with these communities is not possible for the Catholic Church. However these ecclesial communities, "when they commemorate the Lord's death and resurrection in the Holy Supper . . . profess that it signifies life in communion with Christ and await his coming in glory."237
Can. 844 §1. Catholic ministers administer the sacraments licitly to Catholic members of the Christian faithful alone, who likewise receive them licitly from Catholic ministers alone, without prejudice to the prescripts of §§2, 3, and 4 of this canon, and ⇒ can. 861, §2.
